University of Nevada, RenoThe SAGE facility is a hub for discovery, collaboration, innovation, and research. Located in Stead, about 10 miles north of the University of Nevada, Reno campus, our large laboratory spaces bring together multiple disciplines to address real-world challenges and advance scientific knowledge. We are seeking motivated student applicants to join our pool of talented individuals interested in gaining hands-on experience to assist our researchers and contribute to innovative research projects.

The SAGE facility at the University of Nevada in Reno is an ~180,000 sq. ft facility dedicated to advancing our scientific understanding of extreme environments, and the technologies we use to reach and diagnose such conditions. We have a two-million volt and one million ampere pulsed power generator with a 100 nanosecond rise time, used to explore plasma phenomena and generate bright sources of radiation as diagnostic tools. We have also just installed multiple hypervelocity launchers, or cannons, used to create steady shock waves and accurately determine the equation of state and strength of materials, improving our understanding of planet formation, impact crater formation, and planetary defense.
